everyone who is sitting during a vc of court proceedings need to understand that it is equivalent to regular court proceedings. disciplinary action has been taken on some of the lawyers as well not adhering to standard.

@vidhubhushan : You are a lawyer ? What is the criteria for a High Court Judge ?

yes sir. basic criteria are - citizen of India and at least 10 years as judicial officer or as advocate in high court. for more details just google that or see Article 217 in The Constitution Of India.

Hmm...why don't you try for it ?

too much politics involved. there are many more qualified than me whose names have not been considered. then there are many who have been offered it but refused. its very complicated sir.

Makes sense. Though IMO sipping soft drink is not very different from drinking water or is that not allowed in courts as well?

drinking water is allowed but whether an advocate is drinking or a judge, they always hide it behind the case file and quickly do it. doing it in front of everyone in open is considered bad manners as per court norms. everyone is required to maintain the decorum of the court.

i also understand why drinking waters should be short and only on need basis. i mean some serious stuff might be going and and if people just walk around holding their glass and taking a sip every once is a while, awkward.

That depends upon the theme and curriculum. In a Court its complete protocol everybody has to follow. But in LokSabha everybody drinks a cup of water. In a Party everyone will roam with a glass of liquor and Dance like Monkey.

Weird thing is that by distributing soft drinks to everyone, everyone will be drinking soft drinks in court. Or did he intend to distribute the soft drinks after the session ends?

everyone involved in vc knows what to do in a court. most of the time police personnel are either present at the back, far away (they can drink & hide it but most of the time they go out as they are terrified), or standing in front of the judges (they are too terrified to do anything). whatever is the rank, they are in awe of judges and advocates inside the court premises. this policeman must be on vc for the first time so he didn't realize it.

Can PM reverse the order passed by Supreme Court ?

From what my teacher told me in school, judiciary, executive and legislature are three things with equal powers so as to maintain each other. Now that is about 9-10 year old thing taught to me in 8th class civics, so maybe changed now.

But for sure PM cannot alone reverse the order of SC.

legally, PM alone can not do so but the Parliament i.e. both houses can pass a legislation / amendment to change / modify / reverse any Supreme Court Judgment.
Supreme Court can also change / modify / junk some legislation / amendment.

Why some orders / judgments kept in reserve condition by both HC and SC ? If a order is passed then why not announce it then and there. Instead sometime courts just reserve the order, why is that ?

many times the court wants to make sure everything is written is proper detail so that there is no loophole in the judgment. in this situation the best option is to reserve judgment and deliver it when it is checked properly that everything is covered.
most of the time through newspaper / tv news, what general public gets to know is a line or few lines only when the actual judgment may be of multiple pages which might have quotes of advocates on either side, part of some law and / or part of some previous judgment. to get it prepared properly, court requires time.

Why in the name of Supreme Court the Lawyers charge hefty fees from their Clients ? Overall if you see the Drafting/Printing and Notary including Supreme Court fees (as per given in the Website) is minimal. But still they Charge exorbitant amount.

it is not wise to compare a district court lawyer with a high court lawyer or a supreme court lawyer. the knowledge part is different. yes you may find many lawyers at the same place who don't know anything about law and practice; we see many such people everyday and deal with them. when a matter reaches supreme court, the top most court, then it means either it has passed all courts below and then has reached there or it can / should not be taken up in any court below. in such a situation, someone who can analyse the matter and present a case on the basis of different previous various judgments and explanations - someone who has more experience and better grasp of matter. this specialist will ask a higher fee, something similar to a superspecialist doctor. some less experienced people are also there but then they learn the know how of working and drafting the petitions in the supreme court.
